Lest we forget the unanimous cheer that arose when three delicious flavours of vegan Ben & Jerrys swam to our shores.

Some of us have been having trouble finding this elusive moo-free Ben & Jerrys though, and those of us that have managed to locate it may have been a little taken aback by the price (£5.99 a tub – you what?).

If you’re one of those people, you might be pleased to know that Aldi has just launched their very own dairy-free ice creams at a fraction of the cost of B&J.

They have a coconut cream base, making them totally moo-free, and come in two flavours – plain coconut, and coconut and chocolate.

The tubs will be stocked in most Aldi stores across the UK and the US. They don’t currently have plans to bring them to Australia. Sorry guys.
